Bunster converts your shell scripts into standalone binaries using the Go toolchain, enhancing speed, portability, and security. It compiles scripts into native machine code, offering robust and portable solutions for Unix platforms.
Bunster empowers users by transforming shell scripts into efficient, standalone binaries for enhanced performance, portability, and security. Designed specifically for bash scripts, Bunster leverages the Go toolchain to compile scripts into native machine code, ensuring robust and performant execution across Unix platforms.
Efficient Compilation: Unlike traditional wrapping tools, Bunster uses a shell-to-Go transpiler that converts shell scripts into Go source code. The Go toolchain then compiles this into an executable, resulting in native code performance.
Module System: Bunster plans to introduce a module system to enable publishing and consuming scripts as libraries, modernizing the shell scripting experience.
Static Asset Embedding: Supports the embedding of static files into variables at build time, a feature akin to Go's embedding capabilities.
Security Enhancements: Offers functionalities like password protection and expiration dates for scripts, enhancing security and control.
Bunster aspires to integrate essential programming language features into shell scripting, making it more versatile and powerful. Future enhancements include supporting various shells and implementing a robust module system.
Bunster is currently in early development stages, so not all planned features are fully implemented yet. However, contributions to the project are welcome, and you can track feature progress on the supported features page.
Bunster is open-source and community-driven, welcoming input and contributions from all users. Those interested in contributing can find the guidelines in the documentation. Any ideas for new features or suggestions for improvement are encouraged via issue submissions.
The project adheres to Semantic Versioning, ensuring clarity and predictability in release updates. Major updates and new features are planned for minor releases (v0.x.0), with the stable v1.0.0 release intended to bring full compatibility and implementation of most features.
Explore Bunster and enhance your scripting efficiency by transitioning seamlessly to native executable formats.
